Exceptions to the Returns Policy

No refunds or exchanges can be given on items made to your specification, such as named clothing, and engraved goods unless there is a manufacturing defect or the goods are not as ordered. For hygiene reasons, certain jewellery items, cosmetics and grooming products cannot be returned if unwrapped unless faulty. Perishable items cannot be returned. Where a product has a security sticker warning that the product cannot be returned once the sticker is removed, a refund or exchange will not be given if the seal is broken except in accordance with legal rights. You have a duty to look after the goods whilst in your care and if they are returned damaged they will not be refunded to you unless they are faulty.

Faulty Goods

Under the Sale of Goods Act 1979, should an item be returned to us and found to be faulty, we reserve the right to arrange repair or replace items within a reasonable time frame so as not to cause the customer significant disruption. Should items returned be deemed as not faulty, the customer will be responsible for all postage costs. WCE will refund the postage cost of any returned items due to fault not attributable to the customer. Proof of postage and cost should be provided by the customer.
